    DescriptionThe Covid-19 pandemic has exposed the vulnerabilities of critical services and infrastructures to large scale crises and the power sector is no exception. Electrical power systems have been greatly and severely affected by the pandemic, threatening not only their current functionality but also their longer-term resilience, reliability and sustainability.

    It is clear that novel approaches, such as power grid resilience and bringing multiple sectors together to provide essential services, are becoming more critical than ever for not only surviving, but thriving in the face of such crises.
